scorps1212 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Im looking forward to finally joining you guys in the jap world. I pick my first ever jap car up in a couple of weeks.

scorps1212 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 My plan is to only have it til next summer. Hopefully then ill be able to afford a four. So between now and then my plans are nice and simple. Just gunna stick to putting an induction kit on it and a cat back exhaust system. And also some spacers for the wheels. Does anyone know anyone selling two pairs of spacers? Im gunna put a post on the wanted section too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTsillycar Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 You got yourself one heck of a nice Celica there mate. Tom's done a lovely job on tastefully modding, leaving you to add some of your own personal touches Hope you stick with CCUK as we are by far the best club in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, what sort of stuff you do? nothing like that atm, i deal in goodies, so little extras and i do my best to keep them as cheap as possible, those rear lights on your car i can get them quite often, the splitters i can come acrross reasonable often and interior trim bits etc etc I do have some engine tuning bits just check out the goodies section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggy Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Good luck with it,does look a nice example,nothing to over the top..i like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorps1212 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Cool. Cheers mate. And the spacers im after are 20mm hub centric's. They're 50 quid rep pair brand new but that don't come with extended wheel bolts which i think ill need. So am just gunna Hope that someone on here has some up for grabs. Yeah exactly. Nice and subtle but nice looking at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTsillycar Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 as it goes tom's or now your wheels fill the arches pretty well so would't be desperate, as you say some will come up from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorps1212 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yeah? You reckon? I thought that when i first saw the pictures. But then i started reading tom's thread on the car and it wasn't until he mentioned spacers on there, that i noticed it could do with some. But like ya say, it don't matter if i can't get any but if i can it'll be a bonus. But i aint paying shop prices for some. Lol. Another thing, bare with us as i try to explain this. Brand new one's just come with the spacers. But won't i need the spacers as Well as threaded stud to come off the spacers to go through the wheels? Brand new one's don't come with these studs. Which is why i think ill need to get second hand one's that have had the studs attached to them. Make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTsillycar Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Yeah i get ya, the kits should i belive come with the replacement longer studs. Seems a bit silly if they don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorps1212 Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Ill have to double check again. But I'd still prefer to get some off someone from here. 50 quid a pair brand new. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adex Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) You can get longer studs off ebay, think it was around £25 with postage for 10 for my brothers rx7. Thats why the eibach ones cost £100+, they come with everything (plus they're made of super-spanky extra-lightweight magnesium alloy). Plus they're made with bits of real panther, so you know they're good! Edited January 13, 2012 by Adex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
